Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, TMUB1 RNA differs between tumor and matched normal tissue in 14 of 18 cancer types tested, making tumor–normal expression one of TMUB1’s most consistent transcriptional readouts.
The strongest signal is observed in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC), where TMUB1 RNA is more highly expressed in tumor relative to normal tissue. In most cancer types TMUB1 is over-expressed in tumor.
HNSC, BLCA, and COAD are the cancer types where TMUB1 tumor–normal differential expression is most reproducible.
RNA tumor vs normal associations by lineage
Ranked by sampling consensus. Fold-change is the tumor-versus-normal difference in TMUB1 RNA (log2); positive values indicate higher expression in tumor. p-values are from the differential-expression test.
